Loving my new 6-core CPU http://hothardware.com/image_popup.aspx?image=big_die-shot.jpg&articleid=1494&t=a
Was a forced rebuild & i just though f* it!

But you should have known that I had a 1090T if you're a nerd. Intels i7s come in 3 channel, so 6GB or 12GB, while AMD is two channel, 4GB or 8GBHaha *snap*am also running 8 gigs ram
but yeah, dont worry too much about cooling - the amd's are designed to run at higher temps

Also intel multicores over a year ago? I'm not made of money! Intels hex core in 2010 was about $1000!
Look at me, scaring everyone away with geek speak.
Am I imagining things or is there L3 cache on that mainstream CPU? or did you post the wrong picture?
I know I'm a little outdated, but it's a little extreme in my opinion.
lolKnew you'd be here& know you can read those maps - thats the actual pic from AMD website of mine & Pablo's CPU
So fill me in on what you're asking again![]()
There's 6MB shared between all 6 cores. Not bad for $170 hey?Am I imagining things or is there L3 cache on that mainstream CPU? or did you post the wrong picture?

Well that's pretty useless. did they move up to optic intersections? if not, it seems as if they wasted A LOT of space for nothing.There's 6MB shared between all 6 cores
That's actually the communication between the chip and the mobo. I'm talking about on-chip micro-structure.So its memory speed -fastest +L1, +L2, +L3 then RAM -1, HDD -2
L3 sure looks like a solar panel array
Would it have anything to do with front side busses?
Utilizing 6 cores? I'm a little outdated, but I do know since Vista there's full compatibility with multi-processing. it's not going to multiply your performance by 6, unless you're processing meaningless strings of data for fun. it's more like a 4L V6 vs. a 4L single cylinder. same size and potential output, but the division lets you wire it a little different and work on several different strings at the same time. it's smart and you are using it.Like I said, it's all about price, and there isn't m/any applications that can utilize 6 cores right now anyway.
